WILSON, Charles Morrow

Roots of America: A Travelogue of American Personalities. Illustrated

First edition. Illustrated by 33 photographs by WPA photographers Arthur Rothstein, C.M. Wilson, R. Frank Harrel, Jung, J. H. Field, J. Harmon Parkhurst & Dorothea Lange. Some light offsetting and soiling to endpapers, otherwise a near fine copy in very good dustwrapper with various interior tape-mends. The dustwrapper seems to be rather scarce as most copies are found lacking one. "Reporter, novelist, historian, and practical farmer, Mr. Wilson has found time to travel up and down the highways and by-paths of the country, sharing the vast loneliness of a shepherd, listening to the sage talk of backwoods people in Arkansas, harvesting and saving with New England farmers."
